Loin dans la mer

The minimal cast is flexible. The play has around twenty characters.

Céleste, a young mermaid, burns with an impossible flame for a prince she saved from a shipwreck. Consumed by an obsession with his face, she decides to leave her family and sacrifice her voice to a witch in order to have a woman's legs and a chance to be loved on the surface. Propelled into a world she doesn't know, uprooted, unable to communicate and reveal her history and identity to the one she loves, the young girl must find her way to the young man's heart or risk being turned into foam. Can we sacrifice everything for love? Can we forgive those who leave us?
